Safety Instructions

•If personnel must stand on metal or concrete while installing, operating, servicing, adjusting or repairing this equipment, place insulative mats over a dry wooden platform. Work on the equipment only while standing on such insulative mats.

•The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the frame and external electrically conductive parts of the generator to be con- nected to an approved earth ground. This grounding will help prevent dangerous electrical shock that might be caused by a ground fault condition in the generator or by static electricity. Never disconnect the ground wire.

FIRE HAZARDS

•Keep a fire extinguisher near the generator at all times. Do NOT use any carbon tetra-chloride type extinguisher. Its fumes are toxic, and the liquid can deteriorate wiring insulation. Keep the extinguisher properly charged and be familiar with its use. If there are any questions pertaining to fire extinguishers, consult the local fire department.

EXPLOSION HAZARDS

•Wire gauge sizes of electrical wiring, cables and cord sets must be adequate to handle the maximum electrical current (ampac- ity) to which they will be subjected.

•Before installing or servicing this (and related) equipment, make sure that all power voltage supplies are positively turned off at their source. Failure to do so will result in hazardous and pos- sibly fatal electrical shock.

•Connecting this unit to an electrical system normally supplied by an electric utility shall be by means of a transfer switch so as to isolate the generator electric system from the electric utility distribution system when the generator is operating. Failure to isolate the two electric system power sources from each other by such means will result in damage to the generator and may also result in injury or death to utility power workers due to backfeed of electrical energy.

•Stationary emergency generators installed with an automatic transfer switch will crank and start automatically when normal (utility) source voltage is removed or is below an acceptable preset level. To prevent such automatic start-up and possible injury to personnel, disable the generator’s automatic start cir- cuit (battery cables, etc.) before working on or around the unit. Then, place a “Do Not Operate” tag on the generator control panel and on the transfer switch.

•In case of accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down the source of electrical power. If this is not pos- sible, attempt to free the victim from the live conductor. AVOID DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM. Use a nonconducting implement, such as a dry rope or board, to free the victim from the live conductor. If the victim is unconscious, apply first aid and get immediate medical help.

•Never wear jewelry when working on this equipment. Jewelry can conduct electricity resulting in electric shock, or may get caught in moving components causing injury.

•Properly ventilate any room or building housing the generator to prevent build-up of explosive gas.

•Do not smoke around the generator. Wipe up any fuel or oil spills immediately. Ensure that no combustible materials are left in the generator compartment, or on or near the generator, as FIRE or EXPLOSION may result. Keep the area surrounding the generator clean and free from debris.

•These generators may operate using one of several types of fuels. All fuel types are potentially FLAMMABLE and/or EXPLOSIVE and should be handled with care. Comply with all laws regulating the storage and handling of fuels. Inspect the unit’s fuel system frequently and correct any leaks immediately. Fuel supply lines must be properly installed, purged and leak tested according to applicable fuel-gas codes before placing this equipment into service.

•Diesel fuels are highly FLAMMABLE. Gaseous fluids such as natural gas and liquid propane (LP) gas are extremely EXPLOSIVE. Natural gas is lighter than air, and LP gas is heavier than air; install leak detectors accordingly.

QT06024ANAX, QT06024AVSX, QT06024ANSX, QT06024AVAX specifications

The Generac QT06024AVAX, QT06024ANSX, QT06024AVSX, and QT06024ANAX are powerful and versatile residential generators designed for those who want the peace of mind provided by reliable backup power. These models from Generac's Guardian Series are engineered for performance, efficiency, and ease of use, making them ideal solutions for homeowners looking to ensure uninterrupted power during outages.

One of the standout features of these generators is their robust 60 kW capacity, which allows them to power essential home appliances, HVAC systems, and even larger electricity-demanding devices without a hitch. This capacity makes them suitable for medium to large homes, providing enough energy to keep daily operations running smoothly even during extended outages.

The QT series incorporates Generac's advanced Quiet-Test technology, which reduces noise levels during self-testing. This feature enables the generator to perform regular self-diagnostic tests at a much quieter decibel level, ensuring it does not disrupt the household during these checks. Additionally, the generators are designed with a weather-resistant enclosure, providing durability and protection against various environmental conditions.

The models are equipped with an intuitive control panel featuring a user-friendly digital display that allows for easy monitoring of power usage and system status. They also feature an automatic transfer switch that seamlessly switches from grid power to generator power in case of an outage, ensuring that the transition is almost instantaneous and worry-free for homeowners.

Moreover, the QT series generators utilize a liquid-cooled engine, which provides greater efficiency and performance compared to air-cooled alternatives. This technology not only ensures longer run times but also contributes to a longer lifespan for the generator. The low-oil pressure shutdown feature is another critical safety aspect, protecting the engine from damage by automatically shutting it down when oil levels are too low.

Finally, these models are designed with flexibility in mind. They can be customized with various accessories and options to meet specific homeowner needs. Whether for full home backup or partial power, the Generac QT06024AVAX, QT06024ANSX, QT06024AVSX, and QT06024ANAX are reliable solutions that give homeowners the confidence to weather any storm without losing power.
